Despite the coupe-like sloping roofline, the Tata Curvv EV is expected to offer generous rear legroom thanks to the EV-specific platform that maximizes interior space. Early reports suggest knee room comparable to the Hyundai Creta, which is quite spacious for this segment. The flat floor (no transmission tunnel) also means the middle passenger gets decent foot space. However, the sloping roof might slightly compromise headroom for very tall passengers (over 6 feet). For average-height adults, the rear seat should be perfectly comfortable even on long journeys.

The Tata Curvv EV brings several key advantages that make it a formidable competitor:- Range leadership: 500+ km range beats most current competitors- Tata's EV experience: They're the most experienced Indian EV maker- Premium features: Loaded with tech usually found in more expensive cars- Wide service network: Tata has presence across India, even in smaller cities- Safety focus: Likely to continue Tata's 5-star safety streakWhat really sets it apart is that it's not Tata's first EV - they've learned from the Nexon EV's success and improved upon every aspect. The timing is also perfect as EV adoption is accelerating in India.

Tata is expected to launch the Curvv EV in 3-4 variants initially, following their typical pattern:1. XE - Base model with essential features2. XM - Mid variant with better equipment3. XZ - Fully loaded with all premium features4. XZ+ or Limited Edition - Top variant with exclusive featuresThere might be additional variants based on battery size (medium range vs long range). Tata usually starts with limited variants and expands the range based on market response. The top variants will obviously get all the premium features like sunroof, ventilated seats, and advanced infotainment.

Tata is expected to offer an 8-year/160,000 km warranty on the Curvv EV's battery pack, which is pretty standard in the industry now. However, there might be a separate warranty on battery capacity retention - typically guaranteeing at least 70% capacity after 8 years. Some competitors are offering longer warranties, so Tata might surprise us with a more competitive package for their flagship EV. The warranty usually covers manufacturing defects and excessive capacity degradation, but not damage from accidents or improper charging.

Having sat in the prototype at an auto show, I was blown by the interior quality. The perforated leather seats are super comfortable, and there's this cool textured aluminum on the dashboard that catches the light beautifully. The two-spoke steering wheel feels great in hand, and the haptic feedback buttons give it a futuristic vibe. What stood out to me was the floating center console design with wireless charging and plenty of storage. It feels like Tata really studied luxury interiors and brought the best elements to the Curvv.
